Velocity Keyboard

Really great controller…..works fine….very much liked it,..thank you

A must have

I’ve a music app addiction problem... which means I’ve a stoooowwwwwpid amount of apps for synths, controllers, and fx. I’ve synth guitars, keyboards, a Linnstrument, Roli Seaboard and blocks, Keith McMillan Mpe keys, Ableton Push, regular guitars and basses and horns, Akai pads, Kmi pads, launchpads, and a Sensel Morph. I’ve been playing music for forty-two years. But. The Velocity Keyboard app inside AUM as an AUV3 is now the one piece of music tech I use every single day.

Hands down the best midi controller currently on iOS. The developer never stops making it better! Whenever something new comes up from Blue Mangoo I just buy it! Seriously…

The touch sensitivity on this is great; using it makes any midi sound "natural". I suggest a further enhancement making a window of the circle of fifth major and minor chords with the same touch sensitivity to make this the best overall input app.

I bought this thinking it would produce sound on my iPad but it appears to be a MIDI controller with no voices of its own. I wouldn’t mind using GarageBand through Audiobus but it appears it only works through MIDI. Maybe the developer will enable this in the future, but the app seems to no longer be under development. I’ve asked for a refund because I don’t have a MIDI instrument so this is useless for me.

I’ve been using this for years and have purchased many keyboard controllers. There are many good ones, but this is by far the most expressive and fun. If you dial it in for each synth, you’ll understand why. Great with software and hardware synths.

I am using currently With AUM and ISymphonic. I have multiple isymphonics (you need this too) open creating quite dramatic sessions, with pianos, strings , tremolo strings and woodwinds. I am controlling all with this app. I find the chords I can create on this square keyboard take me places I don’t seem to reach on a standard keyboard.

Love the app ! Easy, responsive, fun, expressive. Enhances my experience of playing synths! But in keyboard layout PLEASE allow user to choose the leftmost key in each row !! Why should this be fixed at C? E.g. - my song has a lowest key of B and I have to waste 11 keys to its left (unused in that song) - I want to play rapid runs that go across different rows of keys without bouncing my hand around. To do this I need to choose the overlap of keys of each row, the keyboard equivalent of the Tuning System option in strings layout. Pretty please!! :-)

I recommended that there be an option for the app to place the sustain button on the bottom of the screen for easier and more functional playability, and the devs listened!! It's perfect, it's the only midi controller i use now for everything!
